Abstract

A collapsible desk assembly for selectively deflecting bullets includes a set of first legs that are selectively positioned on a support surface. A set of second legs is provided and the second legs are selectively positioned on the support surface. A seat is movably coupled to the set of second legs for sitting. A table is pivotally coupled between each of the set of first legs and the set of second legs. Moreover, the table is horizontally oriented when the set of second legs is positioned in the deployed position to define a work surface. The table is comprised of a bullet resistant material and the table is vertically oriented when the set of second legs is positioned in the folded position. In this way the table is positioned to deflect a bullet.
